An acid turns litmus red. This is because litmus is a pH indicator that changes color in the presence of acids or bases. In acidic solutions, litmus paper turns red, indicating the presence of an acid. However, if the acid is diluted or weak, the litmus paper may only turn slightly red or pink.

WHAT ARE THE PROPERTIES OF OF ACIDS?
5.

ACIDS ARE ____________.

Correct Answer
SOLUBLE IN WATER

Explanation
Acids are soluble in water because they are composed of molecules that can easily dissociate in water, forming hydrogen ions (H+) and anions. These hydrogen ions then interact with water molecules, creating a solution in which the acid is evenly distributed throughout the water. This solubility allows acids to easily mix and react with other substances in aqueous solutions.
